Walked to work today and for JUST a second in the pre-dawn twilight I thought I saw a bear

5 of the 6 letters to the editor today in the Journal Star were critical of Pillen's slur usage.

None of this response from Ricketts (1st screenshot) has anything to do with my comments about ICE's domestic terror campaign and government funding (2nd screenshot).

Occasional reminder that this guy faces a civil trial set for this July for hitting a child on her bicycle with his personal vehicle.

"With help from another community member"

lol every minnesotan, including recent immigrants, knows how to jump a car by themselves. we get through the winters together.
ICE is so pathetically desperate for some good PR that they’re tweeting about helping someone jump a car in the cold weather

It's time for a #Nebrasketball -style second-half comeback and butt-whooping! Let's go #TeamSnow! #LNK
"Snow Bowl 2026". 2 teams "Snow Lovers" vs "Snow Haters". Of the 2459 days with snowfall in Lincoln, 1897-2025, 1/2 of the snows occurred before/after Jan. 26. It's "Half Time" today. The Snow Haters are ahead but we still have the other 1/2 of our snow season lincolnweather.unl.edu/lincoln-ne-s...

Pattern of behavior.
These clowns still do not take any of this seriously and should be held in contempt of court.

I'm not going to ask if you're doomscrolling. Everything is hard right now. But you still need to eat some food, drink a glass of water, as well as time to rest and recover.

Try not to stay up too late tonight. Sleep deprivation will make everything you need to do harder, including helping others.

Congress must:
➡️ Refuse to provide one more dollar to ICE and CBP through the appropriations process; and
➡️ Immediately take action to revoke the tens of billions already given through last summer’s reconciliation bill.

So brave 🙄
Some Omaha-based lawmakers brought up the governor's tele-town hall from earlier this week on the floor today.

From his presser, Nebraska Rep. Don Bacon said he has thoughts on it but said, “I think I'll just keep it to myself.”

What’s remarkable is that we seem to shell out tax dollars for everything under the sun—ICE detention facilities, subsidies for multimillion dollar corporations, scholarships for Catholic schools—until it’s time to actually help a regular person who is suffering.

Although the MLK weekend streak didn't continue this year, in the last decade there's been at least 1 snow day within a week of MLK Jr. Day

My literally freezing cold take about ones who bemoan any weather-related closures with stale "back in my day" tales is that they should be told to STFU
